Get to know us!
Maura and Co. is dedicated to working with each client to provide fine solo artists and ensembles for any occasion. We work with couples planning weddings either in churches or venues, with clients looking to create the perfect feel for a corporate event, and families planning a shower, party or perhaps a beautiful memorial or mass for a colleague or loved one who has passed. We offer knowledgeable guidance so that the music we provide will surpass your expectations.
​
At Maura and Co., customization is our pleasure, and we work closely with our clients offering extensive repertoire lists and suggestions, but are always willing to add to our repertoire to include music we have not performed before.
When planning music for a wedding, we are fully knowledgeable of the very specific order of service and proper music selection and protocols for masses and services in Catholic and Protestant churches and are proficient and experienced in providing music for Jewish and secular or religious weddings that take place in non religious venues as well.
​
Founded by the late Maura Molloy, our company continues in her honor under the direction of her long time colleague/friend/harpist/pianist/collaborator, Claudia Wigent.

Our team of musicians perform on Broadway, tour with recording artists, play in orchestras at top concert halls and compose their own music.
